How much do you charge for a disco?
Please see our Pricing Page

What music do you play?
We cater for every occasion. From the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s 90s, all to the charts now like r&b, chillout the classic party tunes and many, many more. Requests are explained below.

Will you play music I want to hear?
Yes we do. We send out by post or you can fill out a request form online. We think this is very important as this is your night and we encourage you to list as many favourite artists or styles as you wish.

Do we need to sign anything?
Yes you do. We will send you a contract that we need you to read and sign. This contract is a legal binding document that both parties need to sign. It confirms the date, venue, type of event and many more important facts.

What do your DJ's wear?
Our DJ's dress code is smart casual. Please indicate your personal preference when contacting us.

Our venue has a sound limiter, is that a problem?
No. Some venue’s are required by law to have a sound limiter therefore we are more than happy to work in a venue with one fitted.

Can We Use Your Microphone For Speeches?
Yes you can, simply tell us before your party and we will make sure that there is a microphone there for you to use.

What Sort Of Lights Do You Have?
We use an intelligent system where all the lights talk to each other and create a fantastic light show for your benefit.

What sort of equipment do you use?
We have a huge selection of lights that create a party/club abience for the venue, smoke and bubble machine (ideal for weddings) please note that some venues do not permit the use of these and is something you may need to bring up with someone from the venue. Our sound systems are state of the art. Ideal for large venues.

How do I know you will not let us down?
This is a question we hear a lot. We gurantee not to let you down. Your DJ will contact you once the booking has been confirmed by both parties.
If a DJ is ill we have "standby DJ's". You will also be given your DJ's personal mobile number.

My mate, he/she's a DJ, can he/she use your equipment too?
Unfortunately no.

How long do you need to set-up?
We normally ask for one one hour to set-up all our equipment and one hour to dismantle. This is also explained in the contract.

How much space do you need?
We would ask for a good amount of space (4m x 3m) would be ideal, but for larger venues this may be increased.

We would like you to play longer then we agreed. Can this be done?Yes. If you need us to carry on after the set time and this has been agreed with by the venue we will continue to entertain. The charge maybe £50+ per hour and will be agreed at the time by your DJ.

What Will You Need At The Venue?
We require at least two, unshared 13 amp power sockets and a stage area or other area set aside for us. For parties hosted inside a Marquee we have a special requirements leaflet which is available on request. If you are worried that we will not fit in a space, please get in touch!

We are happy and want to book you. What do we do now?
We will send you our Terms & Condition Your Party/Event Information Pack and Request Forms which will need to be read, signed and returned to us with a deposit normally £50.00. (If we do not receive your signed forms two weeks after posting, we can not guarantee your required date will be available.) Once we are in receipt of the deposit this will confirm your required date. We will be in contact prior to your party or event.
